Faith And Disappointment: Finding Hope In The Struggle | Lisa Fields

On this episode, Lisa Fields dives deep into her upcoming book When Faith Disappoints: The Gap Between What We Believe and What We Experience. In her debut book, Fields shows us how emotional pain—often more than theological concerns—is at the root of our doubt. She invites us to bring our deepest soul questions to this journey as she explores:

• Seven pain points that might be keeping us from faith: a lack of personhood, peace, provision, pleasure, purpose, protection, and power
• Honest talk about how Christianity doesn’t seem to meet our very valid needs
• Why wrestling with God doesn’t negate our faith but instead deepens it
• What it looks like to allow God to bring healing to our pain so we can see Him and others more clearly
